Weather in August
Temperature
As August takes hold, the average high-temperature is a still hot 89.8°F (32.1°C), nearly mirroring that of the previous month. Forsyth's average low-temperature in August is measured at an agreeable 70.5°F (21.4°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 109.4°F (43°C). Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
